double check: after switch off the car, the sound from the engine IS FROM A FAN? that fan is for cooling the engine, or the turbo?
since that fan is moving, while the car is off, that means it is taking electrical power from battery without getting charged back (by the attenuator). so result in a short life battery? dry battery right?
this is something i think of but always forget to ask...

QUOTE(dreamKrusher @ Nov 6 2012, 08:48 PM) depend on the color of your coolant, some red, green or blue.. if the water isnt transparent, it has color, then it should have coolant already poured in and mixed. just be aware of brownish, dark red...color of rust...which you wont be worrying in new car. maybe in next 5 yrs? 9/12? i read that it is ECU 118 the latest... what 9/12 stand for Sept 2012? thats what the service receipt printed on to it This post has been edited by akchang: Nov 7 2012, 06:36 AM

Yes it is using the charged battery. However in my opinion the impact to battery lifespan is not very significant to be worried (it will be an impact) due to its using just a small amount of stored charge. The missing charge will be regenerated during next long drive.

Its very rare the fan keep spinning after switch off engine Should the electrical pump not enough to cool down the engine, the fan will spin too to increase efficiency There will be no significant effect on battery, my other car is campro and it also has the same cool down features, battery life span still good after use for 2years

QUOTE(vinorgouki @ Nov 6 2012, 04:59 PM) isit? they always help me refill using water every time i go service my car. coz the spare tank always reduce abit after 5k km. yes, they shud top up using recommended coolant. Haishhh...even been reminded so many times, still the technician still doing the same thing...the only water can be mix is de-ionised water,if hard to find, distill water, thats for emergency purpose only. It seems that they dont want customer to get angry coz customer need to pay for it, n the price around rm20 per bottle. So, do the easy job,use water. Just need 1 reserve bottle to top up, n it can last until futher flushing.

Guys, I remembered reading thread from autoworld that CFE model having turbo cooling hose burst problem.. After knowing this problem, it really scared me whenever going outstation. Every now & then I will check on the hose for any expansion or bloating shape occur. Any bro here encounter problem on this??
